North American Computer Center.

When Catherine was writing the script, the construction here was almost complete.

In the huge machine room, there are layers of mechanical equipment.

"UPS power supply is operating normally."

"The water cooling system is working fine."

"The test run of the machine is normal and the temperature is within the controllable range."

"The power grid is normal and the load is within controllable range."

"Everything is fine."

Researchers are busy inside.

As the world's first national computer center, the North American Computer Center is the only powerful computing center in the world. Although the computers here put together are not even comparable to a supercomputer in the 21st century, for now

, such computers are already the most advanced products of this era.

Although at the beginning, Catherine planned to open it to the public and then charge according to the calculated amount.

However, since the federal government intervened, this computer must be given priority to ensure the use of the country and the military.

It's the 1970s, and the federal government, under the leadership of Nixon, is relatively strong.

But now because of the oil problem, the U.S. economy is beginning to decline.

"When can we use this?" an old man wearing glasses asked these people.

"You'll be fine soon, Dr. Stanley." The researchers said to the old man.

The old man asked his assistant to open the suitcase, which was full of data tapes. After the machine started running, the supercomputer would begin to upload all the data to its own hard drive for calculation and research.

"The machine is running normally, there should be no problem."

The researchers around him looked at the old man helplessly. If it weren't for his persistence, the computer would have to go through a series of running tests before it could go online after the test, but he couldn't wait any longer.

.

After all, if Catherine's plan is followed, it will take half a month before it can start running.

So now, these researchers simply use the information that the old man is about to assist in the design as materials for engraving.

"Well, let's upload the information first."

The assistants began to take action. They inserted the data into the data reading device next to them, and then began to wait for the computer to read the device.

It will take about two hours for all the information to be uploaded.

These data were all downloaded from another Galaxy supercomputer, and the supercomputer here can also be regarded as a cluster of Galaxy supercomputers, so the next research should be done here.

After a series of designs, the assistants finally got it done.

"Is it okay?"

the old man asked.

"The results should be available within three days. The running speed here is much faster than our Galaxy supercomputer."

The old man nodded, he was indeed at the right place.

Because it involved confidential issues, the staff of the computer center watched from a distance and did not get close.

"What on earth are they doing?"

Finally, someone's puzzling question came out.

"I heard it's a kind of seaplane." someone answered.

"This is really funny. It is obviously our own territory, but now we are restricted by these people."

Some people are complaining that now that the other party has met to take over the place, apart from peripheral maintenance, they can't do anything else.

Of course, if they are not afraid of being invited to drink tea, they can also sneak in and take a look.

"I heard it's related to the Soviet Union... I guess it's research on weapons to deal with the Soviets..."

There was a lot of chattering here.

Inside, a 3D model has appeared on the crt screen.

Although current computers are not yet capable of very good three-dimensional modeling, and it is even difficult to achieve three-dimensional effects, for supercomputers, this will not be a problem at all.

This probably looks like an airplane.

The reason why I say "probably" is because this "plane" seems to be a little bit different from ordinary airplanes, and it seems to have a strange feeling.

At least, there seems to be no similar aircraft design in American history.

But if a Soviet expert comes to see it, he may be shocked to find that isn't this a ground-effect aircraft?

That's right, this product, which is very similar to the Soviet design, is the Americans' own ground-effect aircraft.

However, this aircraft is still in the design process so far.

They now use the supercomputer to put the parameters of the designed ground effect aircraft into the supercomputer and conduct simulations, and then determine whether such an aircraft can operate stably, and when encountering backup problems,

Whether such an aircraft can handle simulation calculations and so on.

If everything goes well, future aircraft will be produced according to the current situation.

The gap between the Soviets and the Americans on the moon was one year, and after that, the Soviet Union hoarded three more moon landings. Although the latest one failed, the other side already had the energy to succeed in three moon landings.

.

Moreover, coupled with the Soviets making trouble in the Middle East, the Soviet Union can now be said to be unparalleled in momentum.

Even Americans now speak politely to the Soviet Union.

If anyone now dares to point their finger at the Soviet Union and scold it bloody, it is only China.

Although China just entered the United Nations last year, its momentum is unmatched by even the Americans.

At the UN General Assembly meeting, the other party's representatives directly pointed at the Soviet Union and said fierce words such as "social imperialism" and "evil revisionism" and "standing on top of other countries to dominate other countries."

Not only the Soviet Union, but the United States was also criticized.

Scolding the number one in the world, mocking the number two in the world, and slapping the face of the number three in the world can be said to be a summary of what China did before the 1980s.

However, the United States did not dare to criticize the Soviet Union like this. The Americans could only use their own advantages to suppress the Soviet Union.

Although the GDP of the Soviet Union is not even half of that of the United States, the Soviet Union is still very strong in development.

At this time, the federal government was considering how to deal with the Soviet Union.

At this time, someone suggested that we simply surpass the Soviets in the areas they are good at!

It just so happened that at this time the Americans got information about the Soviet Union's "Caspian Sea Monster", a powerful ground-effect aircraft capable of carrying 1,000 metric tons. Even the Americans were very interested in it.

——American wars are all overseas wars, so logistics is a big problem.

If it is transported by ship, although the load capacity is large, the speed of the ship is very limited after all.

And if it were replaced by an airplane, this would be okay, but in this case, the performance ratio would be very low because the load capacity of the airplane is really too small.

During the "Five Cent Plan" in May, Americans transported by plane. Although the supplies were sent to Israel, the losses of the Americans were not small.

At this time, some people considered whether it would be easy and simple if there was such a ground effect aircraft.

Although Americans were also studying this plan before, they didn't pay much attention to it at that time, but now, Americans have noticed this efficient product.

As a result, the Americans had a new plan - to use the fastest time to develop a ground-effect aircraft that could be equipped with troops.

After this statement came out, there was the existence of this group of people who are currently conducting research at the North American Computer Center, which has not yet opened.

Their goal is to design a product that can fly stably, at least from a fluid dynamics perspective, without flaws.

Of course, it’s not like no one said to go find Catherine... Edson.

Although various evidences show that the Soviets began research on this type of aircraft in the late 1950s, there is surprisingly similar information in Catherine's manuscript.

Catherine even talked about the future uses of such products above. This is why Americans thought of using ground-effect aircraft to transport materials.

It is not difficult to design a ground-effect aircraft, but the main problem is how to design a product that can be mass-produced and has no defects.

And Catherine's supercomputer is the most powerful tool that can help these people.

People nowadays are paying more and more attention to the convenience that supercomputers can bring to them. It can not only save a lot of time, but also make their work easier.

Sometimes you need to perform complex calculations. At this time, you only need to input a few important parameters and wait for the computer to feedback the results.

Although I only obtained a little bit of information about the Soviet Union, there was also a lot of information from Catherine. Although this information seemed to be relatively general, it did point the way for these people.

In fact, Catherine can now be said to be magical in the eyes of these people.

Although it has not reached the point of slicing, some people do feel that there are some problems in it.

In the process of this research, someone also suggested that we should just go to Catherine... Edson, since this thing belongs to the other party anyway.

From pipboy to the "thrash tank" that is currently undergoing research and development, these are all the information obtained from Catherine.

It was as if she had Da Vinci, her mind was filled with magical things, and then she wrote all kinds of magical things in the design book, and then they became products.

Moreover, these products seem to be quite useful... But Catherine is also a celebrity after all, so no one is going to go directly to her for the time being...
